we are run by students, for students

We are much more than just another off-the-shelf careers society; we intend to offer our members exquisite socials, high-profile speaker events and careers workshops with the world’s top companies.

We’ve achieved a lot since 1976. We are the founder of the nationwide Bright Futures network, which now has presence in over 50 different UK universities. We’ve grown to become one of Cambridge’s largest societies with thousands of members and employers have flocked to us; we’ve hosted the likes of Google, IBM and Teach First in the past.

We are excited to continue to build on our strong foundations by deepening our relationships with existing partners, and working with a broader range of new partners and attracting global leaders to hold inspirational events.
